Explore your data schema with Flux

Flux provides functions that let you explore the structure and schema of your data stored in InfluxDB.

Functions in the schema package are not supported in the Flux REPL.

List buckets

Use buckets() to list buckets in your organization.

buckets()

List measurements

Use schema.measurements() to list measurements in a bucket. By default, this function returns results from the last 30 days.

import "influxdata/influxdb/schema"

schema.measurements(bucket: "example-bucket")

View example schema.measurements() output

List field keys

Use schema.fieldKeys to list field keys in a bucket. By default, this function returns results from the last 30 days.

import "influxdata/influxdb/schema"

schema.fieldKeys(bucket: "example-bucket")

View example schema.fieldKeys() output

List fields in a measurement

Use schema.measurementFieldKeys to list field keys in a measurement. By default, this function returns results from the last 30 days.

import "influxdata/influxdb/schema"

schema.measurementFieldKeys(
    bucket: "example-bucket",
    measurement: "example-measurement",
)

List tag values

Use schema.tagValues() to list tag values for a given tag in a bucket. By default, this function returns results from the last 30 days.

import "influxdata/influxdb/schema"

schema.tagValues(bucket: "example-bucket", tag: "example-tag")
